No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Informed consent is the first step in every medical procedure. It is important for the patient to clearly understand how the procedure will be performed, what to expect from the process, and the possible complications. Any of the specified processes disruption may alter procedure satisfaction and treatment outcomes. Studies have reported that providing insufficient information before interventional procedures increases anxiety and the severity of pain during the procedure. In this study, alongside the standard procedures for obtaining oral and written consent, it is envisaged to augment patient comprehension and engagement by visually demonstrating the treatment areas and needle insertion points using a spinal model. Within the study framework, patients will be presented with both verbal and written informed consent, supplemented by visual aids utilizing a spinal model. The study aims to assess and compare the efficacy of this enhanced consent process in terms of patient understanding, procedural acceptance, and subsequent satisfaction levels.
